➳history; chrom was born to the royal family of ylisse and is a direct descendant of the first exalt, marth. as the second child and only son of the family, chrom made it his goal to protect his sisters the best her could. their parents passed when chrom was only eight years old and his eldest sister took the throne at the age of fourteen. his sister took the kingdom toward a more peaceful path instead of the one her father had been on and this made the people love her as a leader. during her reign, chrom took up arms after learning to wield falchion and created what is now known as the shepherds. this small band of fighters protects the kingdom and helps those in need, often focusing on getting rid of bandits and the likes. it wasn't until they encountered robin that things started getting weird. a portal in the sky opened releasing risen upon their world along with "marth" who saved lissa from dying with the help of chrom. now with robin on their side and "marth" parting ways, chrom returned to the castle to make sure his elder sister was alright. in this time of need, chrom leads his group to ferox to ask the khan for assistance in the war to come. after returning home from the successful mission, he is informed that maribelle has been captured and emmeryn goes alone to try and talk things through with the plegian leader. when she does not hand the fire emblem over, gangrel declares war on ylisse. after their return to the castle, an assassination attempt is made, but thanks to "marth" it is stopped and they flee the capital with emmeryn. however, on their way to safety, cordelia catches up with the group and informs them that ylisstol has been attacked and emmeryn returns to the capital to try and protect her people but is instead captured. soon enough chrom discovers that emmeryn is to be executed and makes plans on going into plegia. once they arrive, emmeryn ultimately sacrifices herself which resonates with the plegian army causing them to go relatively easy on the small ylissian force. the shepherds soon encounter gangrel and defeat him, returning ylisse to peace and crowning him exalt.
two years following the end of the ylisse-plegia war, chrom is called to aid ferox from the conquest of valm. leading his shepherds to the aid of the khan, the make their way overseas to deal with the new leader, walhart. their forces are barely able to make it there, but with the aid of plegia's ships, they succeed in making it to valm and bringing war to them. while in valm, chrom encounters tiki who warns him of the fell dragon that they will face eventually and entrusts the blue gemstone of the fire emblem to him on his quest. the group continues on and eventually is able to defeat walhart and free valm from his rule and his conquest is stopped any farther. during this period of time, chrom discovers that "marth" is actually lucina; his daughter from the future.
after taking down walhart, chrom and robin receive news that validar is going to give them the final gemstone for the fire emblem. upon arriving in plegia's castle, validar betrays chrom and tries to take the fire emblem. robin, chrom, and lucina attempt to flee the castle, but just as they're about to escape, validar warps in and attacks chrom. after weakening chrom, validar orders robin to take the fire emblem, which he does against his will. validar takes the emblem and disappears to the dragon's table to perform the ritual to awaken grima. after defeating validar at the dragon's table, it appears that robin is possessed by grima yet again and kills chrom. lucina is horrified and validar declares that he has won, or so he thinks. basilio makes a sudden appearance, revealing that he survived his near-fatal wounds, and robin stands back up and attacks validar, revealing that due to a premonition, he knew what was going to happen and prepared countermeasures to prevent it. chrom also stands up, mostly uninjured, since robin held back some of his power. the duo proceeds to take down validar once and for all. after killing validar for good, it was too late. grima was awakened. however with the fire emblem complete, naga directs the shepherds to mount prism to perform the awakening. there chrom is deemed worthy of naga's power and is able to gain the full potential of the falchion. naga then directs the group to origin's peak where grima has settled and leave chrom with the decision of either putting the beast to sleep for thousands of years or sacrificing robin to end it entirely. upon their arrival, they are almost instantly struck down by grima, but due to the strong bonds that the shepherds hold, especially with robin, they are able to push forth and taken down grima, with robin landing the final blow and killing grima once and for all. hating the decision his tactician made, chrom is deeply upset, though later on robin returns. now he has returned his kingdom to peace and robin is his tactician
